Bank of China provides the worst service

Bank of China is one of the largest national bank of China, but the service is one of the worst I’ve experienced.

Last week, I received a check from Bluehost.com, so I have to go to Bank of China to  get money from the check. first time, the bank’s person told me check only be collected from Monday to Friday, so today (Monday) I applied half a day’s holiday from my boss, and run to the bank to deal with the check.  I have asked the receptionist, he said I just need a bank card and ID card,  there is no auto queue machine, I have to wait in a very very long queue, and 1 hour passed, the clerk of the bank told me I should do this in the bank (another branch of bank of China) where I created the account, which mean I wasted an hour just to get this information,  and when I requested for a new card in that branch bank, the clerk said I should have two copies of my ID card, and I should copy the ID by myself, but in other bank ,such as China Merchant Bank(one of the best Bank in China), the will do this for client. In another aspect, if I did this, I should wait for another 1 hour, and after that, they would tell me they  were off work .

dam, the worst bank of China, the worst Bank service experience

does my blog need cache

Filed under: WordPress — admin @ 2007-08-09 01:59:22 (7) comments

Why my blog need caching, because the purpose of caching is to make the web page faster. If the page was cached, when is requested, the server will direct send the cache file to the server rather than generating html codes from PHP files, which will use a lot of system resources. Sometimes, cache is not a suitable solution for your web, if your web page need real-time and dynamically updates, but for some CMS system such as wordpress, the need of real-time update is not so important, and cache is a better way to speed up your web.

If you can not notice the existing of the cache, this cache system is perfect. How to design a perfect cache system, it is dependent on the system you want to cache, the perfect cache should update cache files if any changes occurred. Let’s take a guestbook for example, we know the guestbook page will be renewed if new message leaved, so we design a cache, when someone leaved his or her message, the cache will regenerate the cache files, this cache mechanism is perfect for this system, because you’ll not notice the cache, you may take it as a normal php page, we can also do the same thing to wordpress .

For wordpress, if we want to cache the posts and pages into real HTML files, the plug-in
cos-html-cache is the right one we need, this cache will generate a real HTML page for your post, when the post or page is edited or deleted or commented, the plug-in will regenerate cache files. Is it perfect? For default wordpress, yes it is perfect, because if any changes happened the cache will regenerate the cache file ,but if you have some third-part plug-ins , you may need to juge if you need this plug-in or not. Because cache will renew only on the condition of the four actions I’ve mentioned, as a blogger, I do not need so many plug-ins , I just want to blog to to make my blog more faster, as I used this plug-in, and It speed up my web dramatically!

dam ! the firewall

China has blocked many sites abroad, people in China hate this very much, but we can do nothing to stop it. If there are some “bad words” in you web page, the firewall of China will block you site from the main router. Some times, the firewall bocks the IP address of the website, if this happened, some innocent sites with the same IP address will also be blocked; they even don’t know where to complain, because no body has declared to take responsibility for it. If you have websites in shared host without dedicated IP address, your sites are in danger. But sometimes, the firewall just block the sub directory of a domain, not the whole domain, not the IP address either. This seems quite normal, because you will not be involved by other sites.
